6- Eat big OR small meals depending on what satisfies you. Do you prefer bigger meals less often, or smaller meals more frequent? A big part of sticking to a nutrition plan is belief and if you can maintain it long-term.

If you just want to eat a big meal and feel nice and full then 6 smaller meals may never satisfy you and you won't succeed.

7- Make sure every meal has some protein. It doesn't have to be a crazy amount but generally if you have a meal with protein instead of just carbs or carbs/fats, you will feel full longer.
